HALLS

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years supposed to be incurable.
For great many years Doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed LEGAL remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure now on
the market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts directly upon the blood and
mucus surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circular and
testimonials. Address,

The youths are about the same size
and weight, and are very intimate
friends, the sole point of dispute be-
ing the young lady before mentioned.
Tuesday afternoon No. rushed into
No. rs Office and pathetically begged
